Economic Opportunity Report, February, 2004
HUD SOMA Survey. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is seeking comments on its Survey of Market Absorption (SOMA) of new multi-family housing units. (SOMA) provides the data necessary to measure the rate at which new rental apartments and new condominium apartments are taken off the market--usually by being rented or sold--over the course of the first 12 months following completion of a building.
The data is collected at quarterly intervals until the 12 months conclude, or until the units in a building are completely sold. The purpose of the SOMA is to determine whether the public's housing needs are being met. The deadline for applications is April 12. Contact: Ronald Sepanik, HUD, 708-1060, ext. 5887. Feb. 10 FR, p. 6320.
